Chocolate Beetroot Cake

The other day I bought a beetroot thinking that I could make some healthy juice..

Obviously didn't happen.

I came across this chocolate beetroot cake instead

And it's pretty unique I must say..The beetroot gives that warm earthy flavour, it keeps the cake really moist and still quite healthy =)

The great thing is, everything goes into the food processor

The hardest part is grating the beetroot..blehh pink hands

recipe:

175g flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

50g cocoa powder

70g dark chocolate, melted

150g brown sugar

pinch of salt

handful of chopped nuts

180ml oil

2 tablespoons sour cream or yoghurt

3 eggs

dash of vanilla

300g grated beetroot

Preheat oven to 180C

Blend everything in a food processor until smooth

Pour into a greased 9 inch tin 

Bake for 60 minutes.
